| Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Whipped |
A group of college buddies meet every Sunday at a local diner to discuss their favorite pastime- scoring with women. Their conversations are revealing and revolting and always revolve around the girls they were able to "con" or "scam" into bed. However when all three guys unknowingly each meet the same "perfect" woman, Mia (Peet) they start to question their unethical skirt-chasing tactics. Arguing breaks out amongst the group as they compete for Mia's attention and affection. All at once the fate of their Sunday brunch and indeed their friendship, is called into question. What they have yet to realize is that clever Mia has turned the tables on the scoundrels and is "scamming" them instead.

Brad (Brian Van Holt), Zeke (Zorie Barber), and Jonathan (Jonathan Abrahams) are three young males whose main goal in life appears to be "scamming" the attractive sex. Until the day they each meet the one special girl of their dreams and want to marry her. The problem is that the three boys are all after the same girl, Mia (Amanda Peet). The movie then explores the nature of this foursome with some amusing incidents, but things eventually come to a head (no pun intended)
